Johnny Clavell uses his rifleman as leader of a recon lance. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />The history of BT is full of such appearant "mis-matches". (Noone can exactly be choosing, he has take what he can get. Remember that 3025 technology is still slowly failing with new mech production just barely equalizing combat and attrition losses.)So don't take lance needs as your only measure-stick; besides you have probably never seen these guys before you get thrown together into a unit. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" /> (So the choice of mech is more grounded in your background than anything else.)[Just in case, though you probably already know: There's an academy version for techs. (Also, techs are far more the object of "worship" in these days as not everyone and his brother are able to build a mech in their backyard yet. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> )Folkert</blockquote>
